1992 Topps #930 Dave Anderson


Dave Anderson played in the Majors from 1983-1992. He spent 1983 through 1989 with the Los Angeles Dodgers, played 1990 and 1991 with the San Francisco Giants, and came back to the Dodgers for his final season in 1992. After his playing career, he spent 2009 through 2013 as a coach for the Texas Rangers.

Dave appeared on Topps cards for most of his career, getting into the 1984 through 1991 Topps sets. He is missing a 1983 Topps Traded, 1990 Topps Traded, 1992 Topps Traded, 1993 Topps card to complete his career Topps run for his playing days. As for coach cards, he is missing cards from the 2010 through 2014 Topps sets. I have covered a few of the missing cards from his playing days, making his 1983 Topps Traded rookie, and 1993 Topps sunset card.

I am close to finishing off the National League in the 1998 Topps set. Just have the Cardinals, Padres, and Giants to go (almost exactly 100 cards). Then on to the AL. Hopefully I can get it done by the end of the year, but I'm not making any promises. Thanks for checking out my latest post.

1992 Topps #929 Daryl Irvine


Daryl Irvine pitched in the Majors from 1990 to 1992 with the Boston Red Sox, going 4-5 with a 5.68 ERA.

Daryl got a rookie card with the 1991 Topps set, and that was it for him. He is now just missing a 1993 Topps card to complete his career Topps run.

Sorry about such a quick post, but this week has been a little crazy, today is a little crazy, but I hope to perhaps get some time to do a post or two in the coming week. Thank you for taking the time to read my latest post.

1992 Topps #928 Gino Minutelli


Gino Minutelli pitched for 3 seasons in the Majors. He spent 1990 and 1991 with the Cincinnati Reds, and 1993 with the San Francisco Giants.

Gino never got any Topps cards in regular sets, but was in 1991 Bowman, 1991 Topps Debut, and 1992 Stadium Club sets. He is, however, one of the few players whom I have completed their Topps run for by making multiple cards. I made his 1991 Topps card as part of my project to give the 1990 World Champion Cincinnati Reds a 1991 Topps card, I have his 1992 Topps card as part of this project, and did his 1994 Topps card when completing the 1994 set. Here are his 1991 and 1994 Topps cards to complete his Topps run.
